I think you're right. The water is too "reflecty" lol. I live on the south coast, though in a much nicer place than Fruitbat and I know this sounds strange but the sea surface should have a matt finish. Not quite the gloss we've got here. The action of the water surface is amazing though. Colours? Difficult for any devs to do I think as the colour of the sea changes constantly and the naked eye perceives colour in a much different way from any photo-process.

Performance of this new map on my PC? Just got back from PC World and have doubled my RAM but looks like my venerable old 460GTX 756mbvram has met it's match here. 660ti 3gb in the new year I think
Runs slower than CLoD but still smoother. Do I prefer CLoD map to RoF map? Probably. Do I prefer RoF to CLoD? Probably.

Webbed feet? No. But a few of these little beauties always help to break the ice.

On seeing the different screenies for the RoF Channel map, I can't get over how much it just seems to be a washed out and blued up, a few terrain details added to, hazed (to help fps) over, building detail dumbed down, landscape sparsened, nvidia water cranked up version of CoD's Channel map.

It appears to be a modded CoD map.

I've read some stupid stuff on the various forums in the last couple of weeks, but this wins first prize.
